HighMem test
Hi,
I am trying to test a ethernet driver that supports 64-bit addressing. I was hoping that I would see buffers which are mapped beyond the 4G physical addr (i.e > 32-bit) if I have HIGHMEM enabled and use apps that make use of "sendfile" for Zero-copy (like in pure-ftpd) on a IA-32 machine. However my pci_map_page for the buffer seems to have the upper-32 bits all 0's. Is there something I am missing w/regard to HighMem operation? or is there a better test app that I can use?
BTW my test machine setup has 5GB of RAM running a 2.4.16 HIGHMEM enabled kernel.
Would appreciate any responses or pointers...
